In the film "all the president's men" the two journalists Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward from the Washington Post try to solve the mystery of the Watergate affaire. While there voyage leads them to various ways of obtaining information they do not always stick to the journalist's codex. But how far must a journalist go to receive useful information and how strict can one obey to the journalist codex.

After the Watergate affaire Woodward is told to research on the thieves and see if there is more to it then just a simple robbery. Already at the court he finds out that all the thieves are connected with the CIA and other agencies. Trying to gain more information Woodward finds a lawyer named Marken who has been assigned to the case on demand of the thieves. The strange thing is that none of the five criminals ever made a phone call to ask for that request. When Woodward asks Marken what his connection to the case is he denies knowing anything about it. The lawyer goes away saying he has no further comments. After that Woodward should respect the codex saying that every journalist has to respect the privacy of an individual. But he continues asking Marken about the case. It seems like a violation of the codex, but is it possible to gain information if one would totally obey the codex? The answer is clearly no. The Codex is more or less a guideline made to illustrate how an idle journalist works. It is somehow like an old western showdown where you could draw your weapon before the agreed sign and kill your opponent, so basically achieving your goal, but you will lose your "honour". Most tabloid reporters are like that, not interested in the codex and therefore get information anyway they want to without showing respect. But many others still believe in these guidelines and developed tricks and skills to access information without being disrespectful. Again these tricks are not always compatible with the codex but they a realistic...

...All the President’s Men
It was June of 1972, and little did the American people know, that their highly esteemed government was soon to be caught in one of the biggest scandals of all time; Watergate. This was one of the biggest impacts on why citizens currently have distorted views of our government and its leaders being thought of as immoral and corrupt. When two reporters named Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein were assigned to further investigate this scandal the truth began to unfold and eventually led to President Nixon’s resignation. This proved just how important of a role the media played in brining about the truth in the Watergate controversy; we also saw a whole new light into depths of investigative journalism and the confidentiality of the sources they may need to use.
Without a doubt the media played the largest role in bringing about the truth in the Watergate scandal, maybe even more-so than court hearings. One reason why the media had such an impact was because there were so many people involved in it. Originally when Woodward was investigating he saw a break in the democratic national party headquarters and was surprised to find top lawyers already assigned to the case. This aroused further suspicions and in turn his editor and chief partnered him with Bernstein. The team was coined with the name of “Woodstein.” Woodstein worked for weeks digging up the dirt on the scandal, they tried...

All the PresidentsMenAll the PresidentsMen was written by Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward. Between 1972 and 1976, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein emerged as two of the most famous journalists in America and forever became known as the reporters who broke the biggest story in American politics. When every other newspaper dismissed the Watergate Scandal as nonsense, these two men came together and uncovered the true story. Beginning with the investigation of a "third-rate burglary" of the Democratic National Committee headquarters in the Watergate complex, Woodward and Bernstein uncovered a system of political "dirty tricks" and crimes that eventually led to indictments of forty White House and administration officials. Their reports exposed that the Watergate scandal had been orchestrated by CREEP (Committee to re-elect president) and also by officials of the Nixon administration. Two years and eight days after Bernstein and Woodward’s first article on the scandal had been published, Nixon appeared on television and announced his resignation as president. These two men are the authors of two books, All the PresidentsMen, and The Final Days. There is also an academy award winning movie, All the Presidentsmen.

What is Watergate? Watergate is the biggest political scandal in The United
States history. It included various activities to help President Richard Nixon win re-
election in 1972. Watergate also resulted in Nixon's resignation from presidency in
1974. June 17, 1972 a security guard notified the police that a door lock was taped at the
Washington's Watergate. Three officers responded to the call and found five burglars in
suits with rubber gloves on, hundred dollar bills in sequence in their pockets and with
electronically devices, in Larry O'Briens office. In this paper I will determine if
Woodward and Bernstein stayed within acceptable limits. Three specific areas in which
acceptable limits should be looked at are the 25,000-dollar check to Kenneth H.
Dahlberg, the attempts to get Donald Segretti to go "on the record" and the naming of
Haldeman to the grand jury by Hugh Sloan. I do not think in most of the cases
Woodward and Bernstein were within acceptable limits.
A 25,000-dollar check was deposited in a bank account of Bernard L. Barker.
Barker was one of the five burglars. A Florida bank made out the check to Kenneth H.
Dahlberg. Dahlberg said he turned the check over to Maurice Stans. Dahlberg said he
has no idea how the check got into Barkers bank account. When the Washington Post...

...I. Summary
Opening in theaters around the United States in April of 1976, All the President's
Men paints quite an accurate account of American journalism yet at the same time is a suspenseful adventure that manages to entertain and inform its viewers. Vincent Canby, a reviewer for the New York Times called the movie, "an unequivocal smash-hitthe thinking man's Jaws." Because the film is written from the perspective of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, the movie works as a blockbuster, and not just a documentary. The script was written in such a way that the historical information (dates, names, and events) is recorded, but does not confuse and interfere with the message the director is trying to portray.
The film opens with actual footage of Nixon's helicopter landing and then him addressing Congress. In the next clip, it is the evening of June 17, 1972 and we see flashlights and hear radio conversations of the burglars at the Watergate, which leads into the next morning and Woodward's assignment of a minor break-in at the Democratic National Headquarters. A few minutes later, Woodward is surprised to find that top defense lawyers are ready to defend the burglars, yet the burglars have not been able to make any phone calls and the list of the accused includes top Republican fund raisers. Woodward begins to sense that this is going to be quite the story on this first day of uncovering the details of the occurrence.

...to realize how un-thoughtfully he had lived his life in the past and how he had not paid attention to anybody’s feelings but himself. From this dream he wrote the hit record “Yesterday” by The Beatles in which he portrayed his feelings for a girl that he had mistreated. Paul McCartney will always remember how he mistreated the girl, just as the rest of us will remember certain events in our pasts. In the novel, All the Kings Men by Robert Penn Warren, we see how the past affects the lives of many people. Some people try to ignore their past-life the best that they can, such as Willie, but many characters throughout the novel are haunted by their own histories. The main character haunted by his own history is definitely Jack Burden, who tends to flash back to his past many times in the novel.
Jack Burden is a historian. He went to State for a degree in history, so he loves the past. Jack, however, does not have that love for his own past. His “father” left when Jack was only four years old, so he became stuck with his crazy mother who seemed to change men like an All-Saints schoolgirl changes shoes. As soon as Jack left home he tried his best to stay away from his mother, but he always came back home to visit her because she raised him up and he felt obliged to see her. Jack was not trying to hide from his mother though; he was attempting to hide from his family’s past. But what he did not realize until later is...

English 111 December 9, 2013 ANALYTICAL RESEARCH ESSAY
On July 4, 1776 our founding fathers signed their names on the Declaration Of Independence envisioning a country that would guarantee freedom to all its citizens, however events in American history have not always supported these principals. In certain situations lines have been drawn between "us" and "them". Prejudice, discrimination often arose from fear , suspicion and anger. My intro is about this countries lack of perception on the command requiring equal protection of its entire people and how critical it has been over the years. "Allmen are NOT created equal" as the deceleration of independence has put it.
The topic of this paragraph is to address and goes into further detail on the sentence "ALLmen are Created Equal" and how it is a contradiction and how this sentence alone has many errors. Whether you’re rich or poor black or white us as human beings have the right to treated equally. "In mathematics what is to the left of the equal sign is the same as what is to the right of the equal sign, in many ways equal means the same. But we aren’t built like that. This is simply common sense, Look at one the easiest things to evaluate the difference between man and women. How are they equal and how can they be treated equal with their differences? You can’t, Thomas Jefferson said...
